S1 is located very close to the heart of Bangkok, and more importantly, to the underground metro; MRT. 5 - 10 minutes walk from the hostel through the food and massage parlor filled street, and one will find themselves on a busy main road, with businesses and more food to the right, and the MRT to the left. One stop from the MRT station was the Silom station, housing Bangkok's hottest night clubs, if that's your kinda thing. Nuff said bout the location. In the scorching hot weather of Bangkok, S1's cool, air con powered comfort soothes the weary legs and feet from a full day of walking. Not to mention the friendly staff happy to help around as much as they can with whatever needs you may have. Be warned that if one gets a room in the 4th or 5th floor, that means walking all the way up, but if you're cool with that, S1 will be your oasis in the otherwise scorching hot - but wonderful - city of Bangkok.
